Today I will write about a person I really admire. She is a
journalist. She studied at Catholic University and now she studies at Harvard
University on a scholarship from Nieman Fundation.
She has worked at radios, news agencies, newspapers,
magazines, and digital media. Alejandra has written three books: Crime with
punishment about the murder of Orlando Letelier; The Black Book of Chilean
Justice, a book which deals with the decline of the Chilean courts and judicial
system in general. This book was censored by the chilean courts and she had to
seek political asylum in USA for two years.
The third book is Lasting Injustice about the state of
freedom of expression in Chile. She has received several international awards,
including Ortega y Gasset Prize, Hellman / Hammett and Vasyl Stus.
Alejandra has given lectures at universities and
professional events in Europe, USA and Chile. She has taught at several
universities in Chile and has taught workshops for Latin American professionals.
Also, Alejandra was director of the magazine Plan B.
I admire Alejandra because she is a good writer, she has
written to defend human rights and justice and because she was not afraid of
threats or exile.
I didn't read anything of her. Maybe I google her, she could be an inspiration.
